TSO1 functions in cell division during Arabidopsis flower development [PDF]
, 1997 We describe an Arabidopsis mutant, tso1, which develops callus-like tissues in place of floral organs. The tso1 floral meristem lacks properly organized three cell layers, and the nuclei of these cells are irregular in size and shape.

MicroRNA MIR396 regulates the switch between stem cells and transit-amplifying cells in arabidopsis roots [PDF]
, 2015 To ensure an adequate organ mass, the daughters of stem cells progress through a transit-amplifying phase displaying rapid cell division cycles before differentiating.

Strigolactones spatially influence lateral root development through the cytokinin signaling network [PDF]
, 2015 Strigolactones are important rhizosphere signals that act as phytohormones and have multiple functions, including modulation of lateral root (LR) development.

Unique and Conserved Features of the Barley Root Meristem
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Plant root growth is enabled by root meristems that harbor the stem cell niches as a source of progenitors for the different root tissues. Understanding the root development of diverse plant species is important to be able to control root growth in order

Cytological characterization and allelism testing of anther developmental mutants identified in a screen of maize male sterile lines. [PDF]
, 2013 Proper regulation of anther differentiation is crucial for producing functional pollen, and defects in or absence of any anther cell type result in male sterility.

Non-autonomy of AGAMOUS function in flower development: use of a Cre/loxP method for mosaic analysis in Arabidopsis [PDF]
, 1998 Angiosperms use a multi-layered meristem (typically L1, L2 and L3) to produce primordia that then develop into plant organs, A number of experiments show that communication between the cell layers is important for normal development.

Arabidopsis ULTRAVIOLET-B-INSENSITIVE4 maintains cell division activity by temporal inhibition of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome [PDF]
, 2011 The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a multisubunit ubiquitin ligase that regulates progression through the cell cycle by marking key cell division proteins for destruction.

The cytotoxic influence of aluminium on Cucumis sativus L seedling roots
Acta Agrobotanica, 2013 The roots of 5-days old cucumber seedling cv. Wisconsin were incubated in the Al solutions (AICl3) of pH 4,2. AI was applied in the following concentrations: 20, 30 and 40 mg/dm3.
